When you are not looking, is when the piece you are looking for shows up. The beauty of vintage is that no 2 watches look alike. As many purists might find something off, you can get lucky and find something in your price point as I did....
Loving this....

Really nice! For all the love of tritium patina on this forum, it’s also great to see virtually no patina, as it would have looked when new.

One more thing. The information on your website was invaluable. After looking over this piece, I observed no clasp code on the bracelet. However I found something on your site, that explained some of these vintage jubilee bracelets were produced without a clasp code. So much information on that site. I was able to get confirmation.
Thank for sharing all your knowledge again.

Thank you. Funny how pieces come up when you are not looking.
I got lucky :)

The patina on the blue portion of the bezel is scrumptious.
